THE PORTFOLIO

All candidates are required to develop a portfolio of their work and materials. This
portfolio will be collected for each of the four Gate Assessments as well as for specific
course/program assignments. The portfolio should reflect your progress and growth
throughout the program. It begins with your application materials to the School of
Education. Specific courses such as EDU 201, EDU 413, SCE 490 and SCE 494/6 will require
certain materials and assessments to be included.
This portfolio will be a collection of your experiences and accomplishments throughout
your certification program.Many of the key artifacts will also need to be uploaded
to the TK20 online portfolio database.

It will be very useful to you after you complete your program and are interviewing
for teaching positions. We hope you take pride in your growth and achievements and
use the portfolio as a means to demonstrate your potential as a science educator.
